It's very possible that Muziic will be bought by a larger company that's applications such as this one. If Google would buy it, I'm sure it would get a completely new make-over and it will become a lot more popular. It always happens that way.. :) Thanks Rick! Yup!

I wouldn't believe it's legal because of that. Use at your own risk. Two reasons. 1- lots of music sites say they're legal, and that doesn't make it so 2- Viacom is suing Google for billions. In my opinion, rightly so. I don't think the model itself is legal. Thanks. Thanks for the reply.

The entire time that I used Muziic (about 2 days straight) I actually did not see not one advertisement, as I mentioned as a few of the downsides this app is nowhere near "perfect"..however, it's free and beats sitting very quietly at the computer. :) Enjoy!

The reason its legal is because you never actually have the song, just like YouTube; its a streaming service. Until that is, someone figures out how to capture/save the song to a hard drive.

It makes it sound too good to be true. It has to be ad powered so how often to you get stuck having to listen to some ad? It would also be nice if they talked about the background to this, like how it was started. It’s too bad that this article does not talk about the downside to Muzzic.

This way, the music companies get money, however you can't download the songs. Anyway, IMO I like Spotify, it has a clean interface and it's easy to use, plus I don't mind occasional adverts which I don't even notice!
